Ever thought about working in a Museum?
Year 11 Students…
Transforming People to Transform Museums is a programme that supports museum trainees to develop core heritage and business development skills.
Placements are for one year and trainees will be hosted by one of four local museums/museum services:
- Colchester and Ipswich Museums
- Museum of East Anglian Life (Stowmarket)
- The Long Shop Museum (Leiston), and
- Palace House: National Heritage Centre for Horseracing and Sporting Art (Newmarket).
Each trainee placement will enable trainees to gain hands-on experience and a strong foundation in museum/heritage roles. Trainees will be expected to undertake a standalone Level 3 Diploma in Cultural Heritage through the awarding body AIM Awards.
In addition, a Bursary of £14,400 will be paid to each trainee, per year placement (£1,200 per month).
